Non existent staff - so welcome was a joy - walked in to desk to have security come around from some corner (inside) to scream we skipped security outside. Woman at desk didn’t say anything. Security does there thing while also saying it’s just one of them tonight. Go through that mess, come back in, and another person is at desk who says they don’t have lanes available. Security then asks for a second time if we’re bowling, after saying they’re taking a 5 minute. Gave up as the place isn’t worth it. The level of (no) competence or courteousness was actually a bit astounding.

Lucky Strike is a bowling alley right at LA Live. You will need to pay to park and walk over to LA Live to find it. You will see the neon Lucky Strike sign.The place is super pretty. It is very modern. It has 18 lanes. It also has a full bar and there is food to be had. They have a private suite, but I did not use that so I don't know a thing about it.The service is super nice. When we have been there it has not been crowded, we were just able to walk in a get a lane. I don't know how long it will stay like that. The servers are very kind, although they need more of them. They have a great selection of drinks and bar type food.They have huge TVs to watch games if you want and you can sit at the bar and see the Lakers or whoever is playing. The bowling is great. It is fun and all that neon and the lights inside make it even more fun.It can be a tad pricey, but bowling is expensive these days anywhere. Still, it is a goof value for the time you will be spending there.It is kid friendly. The bathrooms are clean and maintained.If you want to bowl this is the place. If you want to just relax and watch a game and have a drink this is the place as well.Have fun at LA Live.

I stumbled across LA Live on my walk into Downtown and wow - the energy was amazing! I was there during Christmas, so having the ice skating rink and huge christmas trees was truly magical. There's many restaurants, bars and local street entertainment around

It was so nice it is right outside the JW Marriott. My husband had a conference there over the week end so we decided to stay over night. We were glad to find so many places to eat right outside the hotel. I can't say I would go back just to go hang out there. I would go back to go to a event . We went to Lucky Strike bowling alley. You can read my review for there if you like. and the JW Marriott

LA Live never disappoints. The place is always happening and the food options are great. This is a go to place if you are in LA.
